[QUOTE="Chris H., post: 919771, member: 124706"] I just got an email reply back from someone I emailed on Craigslist about an iMac G5. They say their roommate unplugged the iMac during like a maintenance thing, and when they go to turn it on, it flashes a folder icon. Well the idiot in his reply says that he wiped the harddrive, and can't find the OS disc. Uh, hello? No wonder it doesn't work! I don't think I'll spend $225 on this..I'm moving on. :Shouting: This is what his posting says: "[I]...The computer was my baby till one day my roommate unplugged it during a maintainance and from then on when you turned it on it would just display a blinking folder icon with a question mark .

It will only be the computer with all parts just as it came I have not removed any hardware internally. It will not include mouse or keyboard.
